Learn Photography Canada's approach is truly unique. By learning about technology and techniques as we took pictures I was able to see the results, get feedback from the instructors and immediately become a better photographer.

I have taken a few classes from Learn Photography Alberta and have loved all of them! They are great about tailoring classes to what people want or need to get out of them. There is plenty of time to practice skills and the classes are small enough that you can get individual attention and personal help. Definitely recommend any of the classes they teach!
